C Understanding the Oracle GoldenGate Veridata Directory Structure

Understand the directory structure, which is created after the Oracle GoldenGate Veridata installation.

This chapter includes the following sections:

Note that the sample directories in this section illustrate the recommended directory structure, as described in "Understanding the Recommended Directory Structure" in Planning an Installation of Oracle Fusion Middleware. Your directory structure may differ slightly based on where you choose to create these directories on your system.
